Abstract

Stakeholders find it difficult to make decisions for both breeders and supporting sectors due to unorganized agribusiness data on beef cattle, it seems very limited information on it. The activities related to this business have not been recorded well, from male selection, feed management, cultivation, as well as marketing and traceability—these factors have caused price disparities in meat to become commonplace. Thus, a model of breeder empowerment is needed through big data maturity. Data play a crucial role in the planning and development of agriculture and agribusiness. The results of the analysis on efforts to digitalize and integrate data on beef cattle business confirm that the progress stops at the Nascent phase. Data digitalization at the Agency for Agriculture Extension of Kediri is at the Nascent phase, while at the Department of Food Security and Livestock Service is in between the Nascent and pre-adoption phase. Data integration in other agencies, such as the Regional Central Bureau of Statistics of Kediri, the Regional Information and Communication Office of Kediri, and the Directorate General of Livestock, fall into the corporate adoption and mature phase. As can be seen, data have not been well-integrated within one interconnected system. The availability of such a model of data integration will be a good alternative in empowering breeders of beef cattle and the public sector, it will also find communication easier with the existence of the model. The government eventually will be able to better improve performance based on the digital data available.

Highlights

  • The livestock sector contributes much to increase the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Indonesia

  • The low production of local beef must be comprehensively analyzed because Indonesia holds the potential for beef cattle development—geographically, we have a vast area and abundant feedstock

  • This method will help to predict the readiness of the public sector as a supporter in providing data and information needed to the level of end consumers, and will eventually assist stakeholders in supervising the whole process in the market

Summary

INTRODUCTION

The livestock sector contributes much to increase the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Indonesia. The program is manifested through several actions, such as replacement heifers, and these actions need to be supported by empowering breeders through the downstream sector This empowerment can be done by assisting peternakrakyat and local governments to monitor. Support from the public sector is very crucial for these smallholders because the public sector makes decisions and policies; as such, the public sector, both the central and local governments, needs to adopt integrated technology by employing breeders as data providers. This method will help to predict the readiness of the public sector as a supporter in providing data and information needed to the level of end consumers, and will eventually assist stakeholders in supervising the whole process in the market. The researcher and the team would hold a focus group discussion with the two parties to reveal the data collected
